Building New Infrastructure in Liberty Village by Advancing Liberty New Street in Alignment with the Opening of Exhibition Station

This new road has long been necessary to address the longstanding and considerable congestion pressures from vehicles and transit alike on East Liberty/Liberty Street, the only road connecting this community's residents and local businesses that call it home. It's also a key corridor for visitors from across the City enjoying games and activities at nearby BMO Field, Coca Coliseum, Rogers Stadium, and Exhibition Place. I continue to engage with Metrolinx and City staff to convey how vital it is that this new infrastructure is delivered alongside new transformational transit as part of the Ontario Line. And, as the province looks to build Transit Oriented Communities, we are welcoming new residents to this community. I'm committed to ensuring that we continue to move forward this important piece of infrastructure, and holding Metrolinx accountable to our shared commitment of making sure that this new road is ready for when Exhibition Station opens.

Expansion, to provide an update to the July 9, 2026 meeting of Toronto East York Community Council on the status of Liberty New Street design and construction, and any timelines commitments made by Metrolinx.
